    A new month is here. Sorry i missed yesterday’s check in. I haven’t been myself for a couple of days and I figured out why this morning. It’s TOM for me. I’ve stopped IF for this week as I need all the energy I can get. I’m continuing my workouts and will do my best to control cravings. I totally failed yesterday and didn’t even bother logging anything in. Whatever it’s done and moving on.

    Today I’ve finished my workout and will now start some cleaning. I’m moving my old sofa out of the living room as the new one will be delivered today. Then the usual school runs and tonight it’s Zumba 💃🏻

    For the self care challenge I don’t really have a workspace and my room is pretty empty as I’ve recently cleared it out so the next best throng was to clean out my fridge.

    Wishing you all a great start to the month and the week! 💪🏻💪🏻

    July goals:

    •Log all food. The good the bad and the ugly!
    •Stay on or under my allowed calorie goal.
    •Do at least 30 minute workout each day.
    •Drink at least 2L water each day.
    •Reach at least 10,000 steps each day.

    Hello Team. My name is Mari and I am co-captain with @lindamtuck2018. I am here to help her out when she needs me and I am taking care of the step challenge for her. Thank you Linda for being a great leader for our amazing team! Just a reminder, we are currently looking for a couple of people to help us keep up with our teammates posts and help with motivation and support.

    A little about me, I am 41 years old mom of 3 boys (2 teens and one preschooler) and married to a great and supportive guy. I've struggled with my weight my whole life and am finally very close to my goal. I've been stuck at my current weight range since last December and am desperately trying to start losing again. I’ve managed to slowly get the trend back down this past month but I’m still struggling. I have to keep in mind the it’s a life long journey and not a quick fix so I will never stop trying to better my health and fitness.

    My stats:
    5’6”
    HW: 338.8
    LW: 163.9
    CW 191.6

    July goals:

    •Log all food. The good the bad and the ugly!
    •Stay on or under my allowed calorie goal.
    •Do at least 30 minute workout each day.
    •Drink at least 2L water each day.
    •Reach at least 10,000 steps each day.

    Hi! We are almost in July!
    I have been having some trouble to get into the community lately.

    I give my steps from this week:
    22 June 6.799 steps
    23 June 11.750 steps
    24 June 16.847 steps
    25 June 9.652 steps
    26 June 12.792 steps
    27 June 17.791 steps

    Gotcha!
    Saturday’s check in
    Calories: under
    Exercise: 45 minute walk
    Water: ✅

    Steps 6/27 9,769 @mari_moulin I will join the July step challenge

    Overall yesterday was a pretty lazy day. I didn’t get my nap as the grandkids stayed until late afternoon. I am going to try and accomplish something today.

    The pool I go to will not be opening to non residents at this point. I go to a pool and small gym that is part of a townhouse complex. My daughter lives there so the kids can go 2 days a week. It is sad because I normally spend a lot of time at the pool with them. I taught both my granddaughters how to swim.

    I walked as soon as I got up this morning. Today I am going to be mindful of getting my water intake as our supper is a little higher in sodium than I would normally have.

    Today’s goals
    1. Walk 30 minutes minimum ✅
    2. Stay within calorie goal
    3. Drink 8 cups of water
    4. 10,000 steps
    5. Bed by 10:30 pm

    Got you in for the step challenge! I do hope you are able to get to the pool soon. It’s such a great workout.
    Steps 6/27: 21,123

    Gotcha!

    News flash! Last minute new team member for you - @stephipeanut will be along shortly!

    Welcome to the team @stephipeanut!

    Hi team DOWNSIZERS! I'm Stephi from Germany (please don't mind my English spelling). I am 28 years old and currently weigh 87 kg / 191.8 lb. Four years ago I weighed 65 kg / 143.3 lb. Since I changed my job (I now work in an office) and have been in a relationship for just over 4 years I have gained a lot of weight. I would love to maybe one day fit back into my old clothes (since I have so many) so I'm looking forward to the next weeks with you guys.

    My highest weight was: May 2019: 94,6 kg / 208.5 lb
    Lowest weight without proper effort: September 2019 80,3 kg / 177 lb
    Current weight: June 2020 87 kg / 191.8 lb

    Since I don't have a step tracking device except from my iPhone which I don't carry around with me all the time I can't really track my exact steps but my goal is to go for a 5 k / 3.1 mile walk every evening. :smiley:

    I eat mainly plant based and try to cook everything myself. I prep smoothies in mason jars and freeze them so I haven't really been weighing out all my ingredients.

    That's all for now but I will be checking in every day and cheering you guys on. :smiley:

    I'm very happy to be part of this team! x
